Em News Bureau ,  Thursday, September 13, 2012, 17:29 Hrs  [IST]

The Uttar Pradesh government recently homed down on Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) township as the location for the proposed 765kV substation. The 3,000 MVA gasinsulated substation will be built over 30 ha of land in Sector 9.

Uttar Pradesh Power Transmission Corporation (UP Transco) has conducted a field visit for a feasibility study of the project. The substation, which will be constructed by Western UP Power Transmission Corporation Limited, would take around two years to complete. The total cost of the project would be worked out after the technical feasibility study report is presented.

At present, distribution companies of Noida and Greater Noida draw power from the 400kV substation in Pali which has a maximum capacity of 945 MVA. On the other hand, the average cumulative daily power requirement of the cities exceeds 1,000 MVA.

Transformer capacity of 3,000 MVA which would be available at the new substation would be enough to suffice the power needs of Noida, Greater Noida and Yamuna township for the next 10 years, it is reported.

The 765KV substation would draw power through four main transmission lines. Two of these lines would draw power from the national grid of Power Grid Corporation of India running adjacent to Gautam Budh Nagar. The two remaining lines would fetch power from Mainpuri and Hapur in Uttar Pradesh. The 765kV substation would be integrated to a network of transmission lines connected with smaller capacity substations further down the line in Noida and Greater Noida.
